Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 6 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en SpaceX (Hawthorne, CA) en jun 2014
Entrevista
I applied online and what set me apart was I included photos from several previous projects. (SpaceX wants to see tangible results from previous projects and loves to ask what you learned.) There are several phone screenings in the beginning of the process with engineers and management. If you complete this, you will go to HQ in Hawthorne for a group presentation on a project you worked on in the past. The room is full of several departments who will ask you questions on it in different disciplines, the goal is to figure out if you were just a member of the team or the one who drove the project. After this, there are 5-8 one on one interview sessions. Expect the whole process at HQ to last 6-8 hours, you will be very tired when is done.

First there is a phone screening, next there are interviews with engineers and managers, then finally there are in-person interviews. In the final interviews you need to give an in-depth technical presentation on a project you have worked on.

First interview was a typical recruiter behavioral screening with a few simple technical questions.
Second interview was with a subsystems lead. He asked me many questions about the project on my resume that was most relevant for the position, sometimes adding hypotheticals.
Initial interview is a phone screen prior to being brought onsite. Promising candidates are brought Tonite for a long, grueling interview focused on technical ability, culture fit, and quick thinking. Interview was a series of one on ones lasting 5 hours total.
